Why the culture of hate is often more personal than we admit
In short: Most people agree that hate is a social problem, but Sally Kohn argues it is an internal one too. This talk explores how to identify and dismantle hatred within our own lives and institutions.
Kohn moves beyond the idea of hate as an external 'other' problem, suggesting that everyone experiences some form of hatred—whether expressed in subtle or obvious ways. By sharing a difficult personal narrative, she provides a framework for recognizing these patterns.
The presentation offers actionable ideas on how to challenge and heal from these impulses. It focuses on moving from passive agreement against hate toward active intervention within our personal identities and the institutions we inhabit.
